Repository driven

No time is lost checking hyperlinks. Textual descriptions and flowcharts are automatically synchronized meaning that changes in a flowchart are directly visible in the description.

Flow chart generation

With Mavim Rules it is possible to automatically generate flowcharts, cross functional flowcharts, hierarchical charts, IDEF0 charts and so on. Using Visio, Authors have the full range of (formatting) options that are familiar to them.

Website generation

Mavim Rules can generate a full-blown website which can be published to the intranet, PDA or to CD/DVD. This is done using your own logos, fonts and so on. No Technical knowledge is required.

Role based security

All information within Mavim Rules is subject to security policies. Authorisation can be applied to both authoring and viewing (intranet) information.

Version management

Information in the Mavim Rules repository is always automatically versioned before publication. This helps authors keep track of versions and allow them to refer to other versions if required.

Office look-and-feel

Highly intuitive software with a familiar look-and-feel. Anyone who knows how to use Word can use Mavim Rules.

Communication tool

Mavim Rules is specifically designed as a communication tool to provide more transparency to everyone in the organisation, e.g.; employees, managers and auditors.

Methodology independent

Mavim Rules does not force you to use a specific charting method or framework. Any methodology can be used within Mavim Rules. Including your own.

Process modelling

When describing how your organisation operates, a function to draw flowcharts is indispensable. Although a DMS might provide a similar function, you will find that Mavim Rules is better equipped for this task.

Rule orientation

Where a DMS has its main focus on a document, Mavim Rules focuses on relations between topics. This makes it possible to query information in questions like: who is doing what, what risks and controls are relevant to this process. And many more.

Publication approach

Mavim Rules is specifically designed for publication to employees, managers and auditors as its prime objective. Therefore a rich set of functions is available to publish to the intranet, Word/PDF or hard copy manuals.

Version management

Mavim is used to store and publish information on how the organisation operates at a certain moment in time. Version management is therefore implemented on a set of information instead of a single document.

Orientation

The single most striking difference between Mavim Rules and a CMS is that a CMS is designed to publish quick changing information (like a newspaper). Mavim Rules is designed to publish the more stable information on how your organisation operates (like a manual).

Process modelling

When describing how your organisation operates, a function to draw flowcharts is indispensable. Although a CMS might provide some of this function, you will find that Mavim Rules is much better equipped for this task.

Single source publication

With Mavim Rules you can publish your information in a wide range of formats. Including Microsoft Word, PDF, hard-copy manuals, XML, intranet, internet, PDA and CD/DVD.
